THE BENNE PLANT.
THIS highly valoable plant (of which the leaf Is the
part used) is especially beneficial in all cases of
cholera Infantum, diarrhoea, dysentery and all affi'CtloQS
of a similar nature. It has also been proved to be a
great remedy for sore eyes; but for all cases of dysen-
tery, either in children or adults, its influence and heal-
ing properties appear almost miraculous. Seed and
leaves can be had at my residence, south of the Publlo
Square, in the 16th Ward, S. S. L. City.

SUGAR.
Sngar Is made from the Juice of plants and trees, I.e.,
from sugar cane, beet roots, carrots, ttLaple trees, etc.
It crystallzes, Is sweet, soluble in water and alcohol, and
18 nourishing to the human system. Nitric acid tntna It
to oxalic acid.
Oue hundred parts of sagar contain:
28 parts of carbon;
64 parts of oxygen;
8 parts of hydrogen.
HONEY.
Honey Is composed of sugar, mucilage and water, and,
being ready-made, llfee manna in heaven, falls upon
flowers and leaves, and Is gathered by bees. Aside from
worldly philosophy, sugar or honey is one of the elements
of a wise God, end better medicine than calomel.
INDIA RUBBER.
The common India rubber, or gum-elastic, sometimes
called cacutchouc, is prepared mostly from the Juice of
the real "Siphonica elastica," by tapping the trees, aa
we do pine for rezin. The Juice Is white like milk, and
after it is taken from the trees stiffens itself into an elas-
tic gum or rezln. It always remains soft. It would be
well to obtala Eome of the seed of the real trees for
Utah.
PRESERVATION OF CROPS BY ELDER.
If branches of elder be brushed occasionally over
plants, such as cabbages, cauliflowers, turnips, or any
©ther productions of the garden, the operation is found
to have a remarkal'e eflfect in preserving the plants from
the attacks of insects, and also preserving frult-Hees
from being blighted.

FLUID FOR PRESERVING SEEDS FROM
THE DICFREDATIONS OF VERMIN.
H. Brown, of Derby, observes to the Society for the
Encourageraent of Arts, etc , that when he steeped seeds
Tor three or four hours, or for a sufficient length of time
to penetrate the husk, In a strong solution of liver of puI-
phur.he never lost a seed by vermin during a three
years' trial.
METHOD OF MAKING SEALING WAX.
Take any quantity of shell-lac In powder; add to It
half Its weight in rosin, and half Its weight of vermilion.
Melt these Ingredients over a gentle fire, and when they
are thoroughly incorporated, work the composition Into
sticks, rolls, or any other form desired.
This composition makes a fine, hard, red sealing wax:
any other color may be obtained by using a pigment of
the color desired, instead of vermilion.
Red lead is used instead of vermilion for common red
■wax, and the quality of the composition Is further de-
based by reversing the proportions of rosia and shel-lac.
The whitest rosin tjiould be used for all bright colois.
The wax will be more tenacious, if turpentine, boiled
with a !!ttla water till It Is hard, Is used Instead of rosin.
The lowest heat at which the ingredients can be melted
should also not be exceeded.
The sealing wax may be softened by adding white wax
to it; It is formed Into sticks by rolling It upon a stene
while it is yet soft; and is polished merely by melting Its
surface over a fire, and letting It cool without being
touched.
CEMENT OR GLUE TO RESIST WATER.
A io'ulion of shell-lac in alcohol, added to a solution
of Isinglass In proof spirit, forms a cement that resists
vater, and may be used as a glue.
23
METHOD or PREPARING A CHEAP SUB-
STITDTE FOR OIL PAINT.
It often happens that people do not choose, or can-
not employ oil painting In the country, either because It
does not dry Boon enough, and has a disagreeable Bmellj
or because it is too costly,
Ludiclie employed, with the greatest success, the fol-
lowing composition for painting ceilings, gates, doorsj
and even furniture:
Take fresh curds, and bruise the lumps on a grlndinp-
stone, or in an earthen pan or mortar, with a spatula.
After this operation, put them In a pot with an equal
quantity of Ume, well quenched, and become thick
enough to be kneaded: stir this mixture well without
adding water, and a whitish semlflald mass will be ob-
tained, which may be applied with great facility like
paint, and which dries very speedily. It must be em-
ployed the day It is prepared, as it will become too thick
the day following. Ochre, Armenian bole, and all colors
which hold with lime, may be mixed with It, according
to the color desired; but eare must be taken that the ad-
dition of color raade to the first mixture of curds and llmo,
contain very little water, or It will diminish the dura-
bility of the painting.
■When two coats of this paint have been laid on, It may
ba polished with a piece of woolen cloth, or other proper
substance, and It will become as bright as varnish. Thia
kind of painting, besides its cheapness, possesses the ad-
vantage of admitting two coats to be laid on and polished
In one day, as it dries speedily and has no smell.
A3IBER VARNISH.
Oil varnishes, which have become thick by keeping, are
made thinner with spirits of turpentine.
24
STAINIlSrG WOOD.
Stilns do not lie, like paints, upon the surface of wood,
bnt sink more or less Into Its substance. Hence the wood
•which has beea stained exhibits Its natural grain and
hardness; and, it must be remembered, that If the wood
be not white, the color taken will be a compound of that
of the wood and the stain. The dyeing woods employed
must be understood to be In small chips, or raspings,
When the wood Is intended to be bru3hed several
times over with any fluid, it should be dried previous to
each repetition of the operation. The woods which haro
been stained are afterwards rubbed up with rushes, then
with a cloth, dipped in a solulion of bees' wax In spirits
of turpentine, and afterwards rubbed with a woolen
cloth alone. When the stain is Intended to be very deep,
the pieces should be boiled In the staining liquor, and not
merely brushed over.
TO STAIN WOOD RED.
Take two ounces of Brazil wood, and two ounces of
potash; mix them with a quart of water, and let th9
composition stand in a warm place for several days, stir-
ring It occasionally. With this liquor, made boiling hot,
biush over the wood till the desired depth of color is ob-
tained. Then, with another brush, brush over the wood,
while yet wet, with a solution of alum, In the proportion
of two ounces of alum to a quart of water.
For a pink or rose red, use double the qaantlty of pot-
BEhee.
TO STAIM Tf OOP GREEN.
Dissolve verdigris In vinegar, or crystals of verdigris
In water, and brush over the wood with the hot solutloai
25
TO STAIN WOOD YELLOW.
Infuse an ounce of turmeric In a pint of spirits of
wlDB, and let tUe mixture stand for several daye closely
covered, shaking It occasionally. Brush over the wood
with this Inlusion. A reddish yellow may be given to
the color by the addition of a little gum-tragacanth.
Diluted nitric acid will stain wood yellow.
TO STAIN WOO© BLUE.
Dissolve copper in diluted nitric acid, and brush it
Vfhile hot several times over the woodj then moite a so-
lution of pearl-ashes, in the proportion of two ounces to
a pint of water, and brush over the stain made with the
solution of copper, t'U the color be perfectly blue.
The green stain, made as above with verdigris, may bo
changed to a blue by the solution of pearl-ashes.
Tue sulphate of indigo, which may be had ready pre-
pared of the dyersj wlllj when diluted vvith water, maka
a blue (tain.
TO STAIN WOOD BLACK.
Brush the wood several times with a hot decoction of
logwood, then several times with common ink.
To make a very fine black, brush over the wood with
a solution of copper in nitric acid as for blue, and after-
wards with logwood, till all the greenness of the copper
solution Is gone. •
TO STAIN WOOD A MAHOGANY COLOR.
Two ounces of madder and one ounce of fustic, boiled
In a quart of water, make a light mahogany stain: but a
dark stain may be obtained by using half an ounce of log-
wood insteat of the madder, and brushing the staintd
wood over with a weak Bolutiou of potash.
26
TO STAIN WOOD PURPLE.
T»ke one ounce ol logwood and two drachms of Brazil
■wood: boll them together In a quart of water over a mo-
derate fire. When one-half of the fluid Is evaporated,
strain the decoction, and brush it several times over the
wood. After the wood is dry, brush it over with a solu-
tion of a drachm of pearl-ashes In a pint ol water.
A FIREPROOF AND WATER-PROOF
CEMENT.
To half a pint of milk put an equal quantity of vinegar
In order to curdle it; then separate the curd from the
wbey, and mix the whey with the whites of four or five
eggsj beating the whole well together. When It Is well
Mixed, add a little quiek lime through a sieve until it has
acquired the consistence of a thick paste.
With this cement, broken vessels and cracks of ail
kinds may be mended; it dries quickly, and resists ttie
acMou of water and of fire applied to vessels containing
water.
POTATO SIZE.
Size is a much-diluted cement, and is either prepared
from common glue or leinglass, or by boiling the shreds of
parchment or while leather, or consists of flour paste
made very thin; but these compositjons, particularly
those of an animal nature, quickly putrefy, and produce
a disagreeable smell, from which potato size is free. Tlie
potatoes must be grated into water, and after changing
the water onee or twice, there will be found at the bot-
tom of the vessel a white fecula or starch. This starch
Is made into size by boiling it with a sufllclent quantity
of water. Mingled with whitewash, an excellent and
durable wtite is formed, which will not rub cfT.

JOSEPH SMITH'S liA^T DREAM.
In June, 1844, when Joseph Smith went to Carthage
and delivered himself up to Gov. Ford, I accotapanled
blm, and while on the way thither, he related to ma
and bis brother Hyrum the following dream:
He Bald: «'Whlle I was at Jordan's In Iowa the other
night, I dreamed that myself aud my brother Hyrum
went on board of a large 8tesmbo»t, lying In a small
bay, near the great ocean. Shortly after wa went on
board there was an '=alarm of Are," and I discovered
that the boat had been anchored some distance from the
shore, out In the bay, and that an escape from the fire.
In the confusion, appeared hazardous; but, as delay was
folly, I and Hyrum Jumped overboard, and tried our
faith at walking upon the water.
At first we sank in the water nearly to our knees, but
as we proceeded we increased in faith, and were soon
able to walk upon the water. On looking towards th«
burning boat In the east, we saw that it was drifting
towards the wharf and the town, with a great flame and
clouds of smoke; and, as if by whirlwind, the town was
taking Are, too, so that the scene of destruction and
horror of the frightened inhabitants was terrible.
■We proceeded on the bosom of the mighty deep and
were soon out of tight of land. The ocean was still; the
rays of the sun were bright, and we forgot all the trou-
bles of our Mother Kartb. Just at that moment I heard
the sound of a human voice, and, turning round, saw
my brother Samuel H. approaching towards ns from the
east. We stopped and he came up. After a moment's
conversation he Informed me that he had been lonefoma
back, and had made up his mind to go with me across
the mighty deep.
We all started again, and in a short time were blest
28
with the first sight of a cUyj 'wliope gold and Bllver
steeples auJ towers were more beautiful than aay I had
ever teen or heard of on earth. It stood, as It were, upon
the \<|e8tern shore of the roighty deep we were walking
on, and Its order and glory seemed far beyond the wis-
dom of man. While we were gazing upon the perfec-
tion of the city, a small boat launched oflf from the port,
and, almost as quick as thought, came to us. la an In-
stant they took us on hoard and saluted us with a wel-
come, and with mnsic such as is not on earth. The next
Bcene, on landing, was more than I can describe: the
greeting of old friends, the music from a thousand towers,
and the light of God himsejf at the retnrn of three of
bis sons, soothed my soul iato a quiet and a Joy that 1
felt as If I was truly In heaven. I gazed upon the splen-
dor; I greeted my friends, I awoke, and lo, it was a
dream!
While I meditated upon such a marvelous scene, I fell
asleep again, and behold I stood near the shore of the
burning boat, and there was a great consternation among
the otncers, crew and passengers of the flaming craft,
as there seemed to be much ammunition or powder on
board. The alarm was given that the fire was near the
magazine, and in a moment, suddenly, it blew Tap with a
great noise, and sank in deep water with all on board.
I then turned to the country east, among the bushy
openings, and saw William and Wilson Law endeavoring
to escape from the wild beasts of the forest, but two lions
rushed out of a thicket and devoured them. 1 awoke
again."
I will Bay that Joseph never told this dream again, as
he was martyred about two dayg after. 1 relate from
recollection as nearly as I caD>

"A REVELATION TO JOSEPH SMITH, JITPI.,
GIVEN JUNE, 1830.
The TTOTds of God whKh he spake unto Moses at a
tlipe H'byii Muses was catight np Into an exceeding h'gh
raauntatn; and he saw God lace to face, and he talked
w! h him, and the glory of God vrAi upon Mose!>; there-
fore Moses could endure his piesencs. And God spiika
unto Moses, saying: Behold I ani the Lord God Al-
mighty, and endless is my name, for I am tvllhout be-
ginning of days or end ol years, and Is not tbis endless?
And behold thcu art my son, wherefore, look and I will
show thee the workmanship cf mine hacls, hut not all!
for my works are without end, and alio my word', for
they never cease: wherefore no man can behold all my
■works except he behold all var glory; and no mcia can
behold all my glory and afterwards remain In the flesh.
And 1 have a work for thee, Moses, my sonj and thou
art In the slmllitade of mine only begotten; and mine
only begotten Is and shall be the Savior, for he is fnll of
grace and truth; but there Is no God besides me; and all
things are present with me, for I know them all. And
now behold this one thing I show unto thee, Moses, my
son, for thou art In the world, and now I show it noto
thee.
And it came to pass that Moses looked and beheld th«
world upon which he was created, and Moses beheld tho
world and the ends thereof, and all the children of men
which was and which are created; of the same he greatly
marvelled, and wondered, and the presence of God with-
drew from Moses, that his glory was not upon Moses;
and Moses was left unto himself. And as he was left
unto himself he fell unto the earth, and It came to pass
that it was for the ^pace of many hours before Moses did
again receive his natural (strength like unto man; and
he BHlth unto himself: Now, for this caufe I know that
man la nothing, which thing I never had supposed, bat
30
now mine eyes, mine own eyes, but D(>t mine eyes, for
mine eyes could not have beheld; for I ehonld h«ve
•withered and died In his presence; buthfs glory was open
me; and 1 beheld his face, for I was transfigured befor*
him.
And H came to pasn that when Moses had said thesa
words, behold Satan came tempting blm, saying: MoseB>
son of man, worship me. And it came to pasF, that
Moses looked upon Satan, end said who art thon? — for
behold I am a son of God, in the Blmllltude of his only
begotten; and where Is thy glory, that I shoold worship
thee? For behold I could not look upon God except his
glory should come upon me, and I were strengthened be-
fore him, but I can look upon thee in the nitural man.
Is it not BO Euiely? Blessed ig the name of my God, for
hU spirit hath not altogether wlthdrawra from me, or
else, where is thy glory, for It Is darkness unto me; and
I am Judge between thee and God; for Gcd said unto me,
worship God. for him only shalt thou serve. Get thoa
hence, Satan; deceive me not, for God said unto mOy
thou art after the similitude of mine only begotten.
And he also gave me commandments, when he called
unto me out of the "burning bush," saying: Call upon
God In the name of mine only begosten, and worship me.
And again Moses said, I will not cease to call upon God.
I have these things to inquire of him, for his glory has
been upon me; wherefore I can judge between hlra and
thee. Depart hence, Satan.
And now when Moses had said these words, Sataa
cried with a loud voice, and went upon the earth, and
commanded, sayins; I am the only begotten, worship
me. And It came to pass that Moses began to fear ex-
ceedingly; and as he began to fear he saw the bitterness
of hellt nevertheless, calling upon God, he rscelved
etrength, and he commanded, saying: Depart from me,
Satan, toi t^is sne God only will I worship, wlilch \& tiA
SI
God of glory. And now Satan becan to tremble, ani
the earth ihook; and Moses received strength, and cal-
ed upon God, saying: In the name of Jesua Christ, dcT
part hence Satan.
And It came to pass, that Satan cried with a lond
voice, with weeping and gnashing of teeth, and depart-
ed hence; even from the presence of Moses, that be be-
held htm not.
And now of this thing Moses ')ore record, but because
of wickedness it Is not had among the children of men.
And II came to pass that wh»n Satan had departed from
the presence of Moses, he lifted up his eyes unto hea-
ven, being filled with the Holy Ghost, which bearetb
record of the Father and the Son; and calling on the
name of God he beheld his glory again, for It was upon
him, and he heard a voice, saying: Blessed art thou,
Moses, for I the Almighty have chosen thee, and thoa
Shalt be ayade stronger than many waters; fortbey shall
obey thy command as If thou wert God. And lo, I am
with thee, even unto the end of thy days, for thou
Shalt deliver my people from bondage, even Israel my
chosen.
And It came to pass as Koses* voice w^as still speaking,
he cast his ejes, and beheld the earth, yea, even all the
face of It, there was not a particle of It which he did not
behold, descrying It by the Spirit of God. And he be-
held also the inhabitants thereof, and there was not a
soul which he beheld not, and he discerned them by tho
Spirit of God. And their numbers were great, even num-
berless as the saad upon the sea shore. And he be-
held'many lands; and each lasd was called earth, and
there were Inhabitants on the face thereof. And It
came to pass that Moses called upon God, saying: Tell
me, I pray thee, why these things are so, and by what
thon madest them? And behold the glory of God was
npon MosPB, so that Mofes stood In the presence »f God,
au4 be taUed with Moses f ac9 to lace; aud the Lord God
32
said unto Mose?, for mine own porpose hare I ma?e
these things. Here Is wisdom, and it remalneth in mai
And by the word of my power have I created them,
which Is mine only bsgotten Son, who Is full of graca
and truth. And worlds without number have I created;
and I aleo created them for mine own purpose; and by
the Son I created them, which Id mine only iiegotten.
And the first man, of sll men, have I called Adam,
which is many. But only an account of this earth, and
tbe inhabKants thereof, giro I unto you; for behold
there are many worlds which have passed away by the
words of my power. And there are many which now
stand, and Innumerable are they unto man, but all things
are numbered unto me, for they are mine, and I know
them.
And it came to pass that Moses spake unto the Lord,
eaying, Be merciful unto thy servant, 0 God, anl tell me
«oucerning this earth, and the inhabitants thereof, and
also the heavens, and then thy servant will be content.
And the Lord God spake unto Moses, saying, The
lieavens they are many, and they cannot be num./ered
unto man, but they are numbered unto me, for they are
mine, and as one earth shall pass away, and the heavens
thereof J even so shall another come; and there is no end
to my works, neither to my words.
iBehold this is my work to my glory, to the immortality
and eternal life of man. And now Moses, my son, I
will speak nnto you concerning this earth upon which
thou standest; and thou shalt write these things which 1
. shall speak, and in a day when the children of men
'ehall esteem my words as nought, and take mny of
them frdm the book which thou shalt write, behold I
will raise up another like unto thee, and they shall be
had agalp among the chi dren of men; among as maiy
as shall believe those words were spoken unto
Moses in the Mount, the name of whiih shsUnotba
known among the ohiliren 01 mjn. And now they ar«
epjken auto you. Amon.
